    This tutorial aims to show you how I knit the brioche stitch as a continental knitter. It's a super simple 2 stitch repeat as long a you cast-on an even number of stitches and I do feel it's perfectly suitable for beginners. It's a squishy fabric with lots of texture and fully reversible.

      Same here, I've been thinking brioche is complicated. I started with with fisherman's rib, learnt from this channel as well. It's very simple and satisfying to knit, except for when you drop stitches haha ...

      I can relate to struggles with Fisherman's Rib. I dropped stitches with my first project and did a poor job of picking up the stitches. I ended up frogging the whole thing. 😯🤷‍♀

    Thanks, I've done brioche stitch scarf before, but lost the pattern. This is a nice reminder how to do it. Just to be clear Norman, on the right side you slip the first stitch purl wise with yarn in back, and on the wrong side you slip the first stitch with yarn in front. Is that correct Norman? Sometimes it's hard for me to follow cause, I knit English style, and I get confused watching someone knit continental. I'm so glad you told us about your second channel.

      yes but when in doubt, you can always just click on the first link in the description. The written instructions always include these details.

      @@nimbleneedlestwo Oh wow, thanks Norman, just looked. Didn’t know you had written instructions. This stitch looks so much nicer, neater than K1 P1 ribbing.

    Oh, I am very much looking forward to the next video because I've not yet learned how to pick up a stitch in a brioche pattern! VERY interesting to me! The ones I had to pick up look a little wonky, sadly.

    Great tutorial Norman! I learned it as the “brk” or bark as they would sometimes say, lol. What stretchy bind off would you recommend? Thanks for another great tutorial!😊🤗

    • @nimbleneedlestwo
      @nimbleneedlestwo  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      well, I guess grafting methods like the tubular/italian bind-off can look fun but it will depend a bit on the project really.

    @mini_maven 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great tutorial. Have you tried doing this with a tubular cast on/bind off? Does it work well together? I can see using smaller needles and trying this for cuffs that lay flat and don't squish in like ribbing.

    • @nimbleneedlestwo
      @nimbleneedlestwo  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      yes that can be an option...however it can also be super stretchy very quickly and then it migh tno tbe the best option for hems and cuffs

  • @nicolelafontaine1720
    @nicolelafontaine1720 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great tuto. Would you say the standard bind off can also maintain the structure of the brioche stitch, so it doesn't stretch and flatten after a while ?

    • @nimbleneedlestwo
      @nimbleneedlestwo  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      well, for scarfs and that kind of stuff, I personally like it but that's probably just a personal preferences. I mean..it's not fully reversible sure...but that's okay for me.

    Another remark: In my old german knitting book "Perfekt Stricken" by Hanna Jaacks I had found a recommendation for the first and last stitches of every row. She says that a "Schweizer Rand" would be absolutely preferable for brioche (Patentmuster) or lace or very fine wool. "Schweizer Rand" means you purl every first and last stitch of every row. Do you know about this? Since I've already started my brioche project months ago I will keep using that... A little bit confusing for me...

    • @nimbleneedlestwo
      @nimbleneedlestwo  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Well, that kind of depends on what you are using it. I am not familar with the term Schweizer Rand but there are so many regional terms that's no big surprise. Essentially it's a selvage of reverse garter stitch.
      I do feel that can be very nice if you want to seam things because then you can use the matress stitch and it's going to be near invisible.
      If youa re following a pattern then I'D definitely stick to this. THis selvage is just one of a million different methods and it really boils down to preferences.

    Is the brioche stitch different from the half brioche stitch?
